As we age, our skin undergoes natural changes. Collagen, the major support protein for our skin, starts to decrease, leading to a loss of firmness and elasticity. Elastin, responsible for skin’s ability to resist wrinkles, also diminishes. Additionally, hyaluronic acid, which helps trap water and adds volume and shape to our skin, starts to deplete. These changes contribute to the formation of wrinkles, loss of volume, and changes in facial contours.
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments designed to address age-related changes. They are gel-like substances made of biocompatible elements such as hyaluronic acid. These substances are carefully injected beneath the skin’s surface to soften lines and wrinkles, restore lost volume, and enhance facial features. Dermal fillers can also be used to minimise the appearance of skin damage caused by accidents or trauma and to treat facial asymmetry.

At our clinic, we prioritise safety and natural-looking results. There are many different brands of dermal filler (Restylane®, Yvoire®, Juvederm®, Teosyal® Belotero® and many more). We only use CE Marked and FDA approved dermal fillers with a superior safety profile, proven track record, and published evidence-based research. The results of dermal filler treatments are often visible immediately, and they can last up to 12 months, depending on factors such as lifestyle, skin structure, age, and the degree of correction desired.
Dermal fillers can be used for a variety of facial rejuvenation and enhancement purposes, including:
The choice of dermal filler depends on several factors, including the area to be treated, the desired outcome, and individual preferences. At our clinic, we offer complimentary consultations with our Lead Aesthetic Practitioner, Monica Berrange, who will assess your needs and recommend the most suitable treatment plan.
The dermal filler procedure typically takes about 30 minutes. In some cases, before the injections, a topical anaesthetic cream may be applied to ensure your comfort. The filler gel is then carefully injected into the skin using a fine needle or cannula. Discomfort is usually minimal and short-lived. Depending on the treatment and desired outcome, a touch-up treatment may be recommended a few weeks later to achieve optimal correction.
Dermal fillers are generally safe, and the hyaluronic acid used in many fillers is not extracted from animals, minimising the risk of allergic reactions. However, some common injection-related reactions may occur, such as redness, pain, itching, and tenderness at the injection site. Swelling and bruising may also occur and can last for a few days. It is essential to report any side effects to your practitioner immediately.
